Trade Up: Swap a Ho-Hum Night for an Exciting Night of Baseball Without Spending More Cash

Dinner and a movie finally have some competition when it comes to having a night out on the town. For the cost of what you’re probably doing on any ordinary night, Goldstar says you can go to a Major League Baseball game (opening day is Sunday, April 5).

Regardless of your budget, there’s likely an amazing experience waiting for you at the ballpark, for about the same price — or one that’s even better.

Ballpark Experience $200 for two tickets in the posh Jim Beam Suites at Yankee Stadium. The suites offer cushy seats, sweeping views of the field and access to a cocktail lounge. It also includes all the peanuts and popcorn you can eat, plus soda, and you’ll even beat the crowds with exclusive bathrooms and a terrace.Total: $200

Dinner & Movie $30 for a large “Tony Clifton” pizza (mushrooms, red pepper pesto and onions) at nearby Two Boots, plus two sodas. $30 for two tickets to downtown’s LA Live theater.Total: $60

Baseball Experience $64 for two All-You-Can Eat Pavilion outfield bleacher seats, replete with free nachos, popcorn, peanuts, soda and the famous Dodger Dogs. A few bucks more than the pizza, but you’ll get a close-up view of magnificent slugging right fielder Yasiel Puig and a night with some of baseball’s most passionate fans.Total: $64

Stadiums across the country offer up cost-varying experiences like these, so whether you’re looking for premium seats or a super affordable bleacher ticket, there are tickets available at a price that fits your budget. Add a discount into the mix, which Goldstar has on the regular, and it’s even more affordable to trade up your dinner and movie night for an exciting time at the ballpark.
